Summer holidays are here, and for many of us, that means slow mornings, sunny afternoons, and lots of quality time with the kids. If you’re staying home this summer and soaking in every moment with your little ones, we have the perfect snack activity that doubles as a fun kitchen experiment — our Banana Bliss Bites.
Not only are they wholesome, naturally sweet, and packed with nutrients, but they’re also easy to make — and even more fun when little hands get involved!
A Snack + A Mini Kitchen Adventure
Start your snack session with a little prep: soak pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, and watermelon seeds in water for at least two hours. This softens them and makes them easier to digest. But here’s the fun part — turn soaking time into playtime!
If you’ve got a toddler or preschooler around, they’ll love the sensory experience of water, seeds, and color. Try a fun game of “Guess the Seed!” — ask them to pick out the green pumpkin seeds, the tiny grey chia seeds, or the shiny white sunflower and watermelon seeds. It’s a great way to sneak in some learning while playing.
Let’s Build the Bliss Bites!
Once your seeds are ready, it’s time to get creative. This recipe is delightfully simple:
Ingredients:
Method:
Slice a ripe banana lengthwise, gently sliding it onto a plate without breaking it.
Scoop a spoonful of organic sprouted peanut butter and spread it evenly on the banana. Let your child help here — things might get a little messy, but that’s half the joy!
Sprinkle your soaked seeds over the peanut butter. You can make a game of it — maybe even draw little sections where they get to decorate with specific seeds.
Finally, drizzle raw honey over the top. The golden sweetness pulls it all together.
The finished treat is a feast for the eyes and the tastebuds — the green of the pumpkin seeds, grey-speckled chia, and pale sunflower and watermelon seeds shine through the golden honey glaze. It’s soft, crunchy, creamy, and sweet — a perfectly balanced bite every time.
One Spoonful, So Much Joy
Use a spoon to scoop out a bite and savor it slowly. The banana melts in your mouth while the seeds add a satisfying crunch. The sprouted peanut butter adds depth, and the honey is the perfect finishing touch. It’s a moment of bliss in every bite — one you’ll want to revisit again and again.
